Nick Jr. Picks Up Saban's 'Julius Jr.'

Saban Brand’s new animated preschool series “Julius Jr.,” will air on Nick Jr. in the U.S., Australia and New Zealand this year.

Inspired by the Paul Frank family of characters, the series follows the adventures of a young version of Julius the Monkey. This is the first television extension for the Paul Frank brand.

"This is an exciting next step for the Paul Frank brand and for Saban Brands," says Elie Dekel, president, Saban Brands. "‘Julius Jr.’ will entertain and captivate millions of children and continue our tradition of creating new platforms on which to engage with our brands."
